My mum was told yesterday there was nothing else her oncologist can do no more treatment. I feel sad , Angry, and completely helpless that I cannot do anything.
I am so sorry to hear this. I’m in a similar position with my mom, she’s too old for operations and too unwell for chemo etc. I am sending you a giant hug. I am now focussed on trying to get her the help she needs so she’s comfortable as that’s what I can control, trying to navigate the care system etc. It makes me feel a little useful. We’re all here if you need support. Make sure you’re getting some rest. x
Hi spanner, Im sorry to read this. I remember the day my husbands oncologist told him there was nothing else they could do and signed him off back to the GP. It was a phone call and we were travelling at the time. Although we knew his cancer was aggressive and terminal, treatment gave us hope. Then suddenly there was no hope.
All that is left is taking time to be with each other and as Laura said, getting them as much support to be as comfortable as possible.
Big hug coming as you navigate whatever time you have left together. Its tough so do chat here, lots of us understand.
